Hi,
Is anyone successful with mod_jserv load balancing with stickyness when
cookies disabled?
I am running Tomcat 3.2.1 and apache 1.3.12 with mod_jserv on sun solaris 2.6
I have configured apache for load balancing between 2 unix servers and it
is working fine when cookies are enabled. The requests are load balanced
between
the 2 servers and session stickyness works fine (once the session is
established
the request is always routed to the right app server based on the suffix in
the jsessionid).
But when the cookies are disabled (I am encoding encoding the url) the
requests are
distributed between server1 and server2 meaning doesn't stick to the same
app server.
When there is a request from the browser (and the URL has the
jsessionid.suffix) the
mod_jserv doesn't route it to the right app server based on the suffix in
the jsessionid
and the session is lost (a new session id is created).
Here is the configuration I have in httpd.conf
<IfModule mod_jserv.c>

Any help is highly appreciated
